Daegu Korea Gas Corporation, a professional basketball team, won a miraculous come-from-behind victory and rose to the sole lead.
Korea Gas Corporation beat Suwon kt 82-74 with 14 outside shots in the 2024-2025 KCC professional basketball regular league home game held at Daegu Gymnasium on the 5th.
Korea Gas Corporation, which has won six consecutive games since its foundation in 2021, has become No. 1 with a record of six wins and one loss. KT, on the other hand, fell from third place to fifth place with four wins and three losses due to a painful come-from-behind loss.
Korea Gas Corporation’s basketball game started in the fourth quarter
Korea Gas Corporation missed the shot and was dragged by kt throughout the game. In particular, the two-point shooting success rate in the first half was only 20%, and the defense, which was its biggest strength, was penetrated. On the other hand, KT finished the first half 47-39 with Huh Hoon and Han Hee-won’s attacks.
The gap widened in the third quarter. As Korea Gas Corporation, which tried to counterattack by force, made an error, it seemed as if KT had won the match by 57-41, by leading by 16 points.
However, the mood changed five minutes before the game ended in the fourth quarter. Starting with Andrew Nicholson’s outside shot and Joseph Bellangel’s scoring, the team quickly followed suit.
Confused, KT made a flurry of mistakes, and Korea Gas Corporation’s chances of attack increased. Korea Gas Corporation, which succeeded in turning the tables 75-74, completely brought the flow of the game with Jung Sung-woo’s decisive three-run shot.
Korea Gas Corporation, which sealed the situation with Vellangel’s outer shot and Vellangel’s free throw, overturned its inferiority by more than 10 points and rather won by 8 points, boasting an overwhelming “back-to-back.”
Korea Gas Corporation had a low two-point shooting success rate of 44%, but rather threw 28 three-point shots to make 14, setting the stage for the reversal.
Nicholson recorded a “double double” with 33 points and 10 rebounds, including five three-pointers, while Bellangel supported him with 12 points and eight assists. Shin Seung-min and Kim Nak-hyun also scored three-point shots in each match.
“Kang Hyuk Magic,” which caused a change in the perception of professional basketball
Korea Gas Corporation was at the bottom of the list last season, but it made an unexpected splash at the last minute, harassing the top. 안전놀이터
Korea Gas Corporation, which continued its upward trajectory by promoting its acting coach Kang Hyuk to an official leadership, ranked seventh and failed to advance to the playoffs by a “one-way” margin. However, the competition between Korea Gas Corporation and Korea Gas Corporation has intensified.
Korea Gas Corporation, which has no notable fixer this season, was evaluated as a dark horse, not a favorite.
However, bringing in Jeong Seong-woo, a free agent, struck a chord with the team. Coach Kang has come up with an unconventional strategy of bringing three guards to the fore, with both strong defense and strong defense, Velangel and Kim Nak-hyun at the forefront.
Taking advantage of the fact that professional basketball has greatly eased the standards for physical fighting and fouling since this season, the Korea Gas Corporation has shaken the men’s game with its own basketball, which takes the ball away with an appropriate pressure defense and scores with a quick attack transition.
Unlike other clubs, there are no superstars with a huge price due to their tight living, but playing a lively game for 40 minutes by arranging their physical strength through the use of various players is also having a great effect.
Attention is focusing on how the drama of Korea Gas Corporation, which overturned expectations early in the season with coach Kang Hyuk’s leadership and the determination of the players, will end.
